Q

Structural element of connective tissue that synthesizes the matrix and maintains the health of the tissue

A

Cells (Cytes, blasts)

21
Q

Part of the matrix of connective tissue, is amorphous and composed of glycoaminoglycans, traps and holds water to alter viscosity

A

Ground Substance

22
Q

Second component of the matrix, is things like collagen, elastic, and reticular

23
Q

Loose, areolar connective tissue, a widely distributed packing substance

A

Connective tissue proper

24
Q

Loose connective tissue that stores nutrients and insulates the body

25
Loose connective tisssue that is a network of fibers and forms a skeleton like structure ex: lymph nodes, bone marrow
Reticular Tissue
26
Type of connective tissue proper made up mostly of fibers that run parallel to each other, they are very closely packed Ex) Tendons and ligaments
Dense connective tissue
27
Dense connective tissue that are irregularly arranged, can withstand tension exerted in many different directions ex) dermis of the skin, fibrous covering of the organs
Dense irregular connective tissue
28
Defined as the epithelium and underlying connective tissue
Epithelial Membrane
29
Epithelial membrane of the skin, keratinized stratified squamous epithelium
Cutaneous Membrane
30
Epithelial membrane that lines the body cavities with epithelium
Mucous Membrane
31
Epithelial Membrane that covers the organs and lines body cavities with epithelium
Serous Membrane
32
What are the three types of specialized connective tissue?
Cartilage, bone, blood
33
Tough and flexible specialized connective tissue made up of cells and matrix
Cartilage
34
The cells of cartilage are....
Chondrocytes
35
The ground substance of the cartilage matrix The fibers of the cartilage matrix
Hyaluronic Acid, Chondroiton Sulfate Collagen or Elastic
36
Cartilage with no visible fibers, it covers articular surfaces and makes epiphyseal plates
Hyaline Cartilage
37
Cartilage with a high amount of elastic fibers, maintains shape while allowing great flexibility Ex: External ear epiglottis
Elastic Cartilage
38
Cartilage with high amounts of collagen fibers Ex) Intervertebral Disks, Pubic Symphysis, Menisci in knee joint, labrum of joints
Fibrocartilage
39
Specialized connective tissue composed of osteocytes
Bone
40
What substances of the ground substance of bone gives it rigidity?
Inorganic salts (Calcium and phosphate)
41
An atypical specialized connective tissue that doesn't support things
Blood
42
The cells of blood The ground substance of blood The fibers of blood
Blood Cells Plasma Clotting
43
Tissue that is responsible for movements outside and inside the body
Muscle Tissue
44
Name the three types of muscle tissue
Skeletal Cardiac Smooth
45
Muscle that is voluntarily controlled, has a striated histology, these make our bones move (also the skin in the face)
Skeletal Bones
46
Muscle that is involuntary and found in the walls of the heart
Cardiac Muscle
47
Muscle that is involuntary that has no visible striations, and is found in the walls of organs
Smooth Muscles
48
Tissue that is excitable and conducts impulses
Nervous Tissue
49
The conducting cell of nervous tissue, makes up the brain, spinal cord and nerves The non conducting, supporting cells of nervous tissue
Neuron Glial cells, schwann cells
